1917 Map of Gantts Quarry
USGS Topo · Published 1917About this map
Gantts Quarry and the neighboring industrial hub of Sylacauga dominate the eastern landscape of this Alabama survey, where the mining of white marble shaped the local economy. The terrain is defined by the ridge of Kahatchee Mountain and the winding course of the Coosa River to the west. Transportation is heavily influenced by the presence of three major lines: the Louisville and Nashville RR, the Central of Georgia Ry, and the Southern Ry, which converge to serve the quarries and mills. In the river lowlands, transit relied on landmarks like Mc Gowan Ferry and Owens Ferry. Rural life is marked by several neighborhood schools, including Shelving Rock School and Estelle School, while smaller industrial sites like Eureka Quarry and Looneys Mill dot the drainages of Peckerwood Creek and Cedar Creek.
